Here's a weird one Guys. I'm trying to format a string with fixed
length fields and display in a textview. The format is absolutely
perfect when I print it out to a terminal with all the fields neatly
aligned. When I write the same thing to a textview, they look really
out of place with fields not aligned at all. What am I missing?
Interestingly when I copy everything (ctrl + c) from textview and
paste it to gedit. They are neatly aligned ???
Any ideas?
Here's my code.
writeTextView(textview, "a", "debug", fmtrecord("field1,field2,field3") + "\n")
def fmtrecord(rowstr):
srstr = rowstr.split(",")
fmtstr = string.rjust(srstr[0].strip(), 15) +
string.rjust(srstr[1].strip(), 15) + string.rjust(srstr[2].strip(),
15)
return fmtstr
def writeTextView(tview, mode, type, wstr):
tbuf = tview.get_buffer()
ttable = tbuf.get_tag_table()
if mode == 'w':
tbuf.set_text("")
sob, eob = tbuf.get_bounds()
tagexists = ttable.lookup(type)
if (tagexists == None):
tag = gtk.TextTag(type)
if type == 'error':
tag.set_property("font", "Arial")
tag.set_property("foreground", "red")
tag.set_property("size-points", 12)
tag.set_property("weight", 400)
elif type == 'warn':
tag.set_property("font", "Arial")
tag.set_property("foreground", "orange")
tag.set_property("size-points", 12)
tag.set_property("weight", 400)
else:
tag.set_property("font", "Arial")
tag.set_property("foreground", "blue")
tag.set_property("size-points", 10)
tag.set_property("weight", 400)
ttable.add(tag)
else:
tag = tagexists
tbuf.insert_with_tags_by_name(eob, wstr, type)
